Can Matías Pérez García Flourish With Kaká Out?

After a successful 2017 Major League Soccer debut, defeating New York City FC 1-0 at the new downtown stadium last Sunday, Orlando City SC will have a big challenge to face in the upcoming weeks. With captain Kaká sidelined for six weeks because of a left hamstring injury, the Lions will have to make arrangements on their offensive system to remain competitive.

Even though it hurts the team, Kaká’s absence also brings an opportunity for other players to step up their games. One of them is 32-year-old Argentinean Matías Pérez García.
